I'm big on passive income and always thought putting out music is one of the many ways to get passive (residual) income for life.
I know the music industry has changed drastically (illegal downloads, streaming) but I'm curious what profit an artist would see off their album.
He's selling it for $9.99 on itunes which I assume people will get since mostly all his songs are album only...
So out of that $9.99, would profit does the artist get?
And if an artist makes most of their money doing shows and tours, that kind of beats the purpose of passive income...
Rambling but the business side of the music industry has always intrigued me.

Anyone knowledgeable know how artists like meek, ross, future are making bank w/o doing tours and shows? or is the big money ONLY doing shows?

I can't say but I'd assume they are making the same as before possibly more. It's a lot less to recoup these days.

Ross/Meek have endorsements and investments in other things (Wingstop/Puma/Reebok/24K Headphones etc..). Plus they can pack huge venues at shows. They are brands not just rappers.

Not to mention there are no more big budgets to recoup from like back in the 90's-2000's, dudes shoot a couple of viral videos and promote their shyt on IG.
